In May of 1997, the U.S. Biographies Project was organized by Jeff
Murphy, using the
established Kentucky Biographies Project as a model. State coordinators
were sought to set
up their own state projects. They were offered the system design and
tools created for the
Kentucky project, but were free to set up their projects in any way
they chose.

My name is Cindy Radway and I am the temporary County Coordinator
for Pecos
County as part of
the Texas Biographies Project. If you wish to volunteer to assist
in entering or
editing biographies for this county, please send e-mail to Cindy
Radway

We would like to acknowledge Jeff Murphy and all the
time and effort he
put into getting this project started. We'll miss his being active in
the project on a
daily basis. Thanks to him, many people will be able to continue
their family
searches over the Internet at no cost.
